He is 23 yrs old and has a job where he makes over 6 million dollars a year, and is at the top level (all star, cup winner, etc.) in his field.

I'm not necessarily a Patty Kane fan, but for pete's sake, have a good weekend drinking, Young Mr. Kane.

I don't think the issue is with him drinking, all NHL players drink. The issue is him getting black out drunk in settings like that. If you are the front office of an organization, those are not the situations you want your players to be.

It's stuff like this that's the issue...

"Kane got kicked out of the Kappa Sig party I was at for trying to choke a girl."

Even a rumor of something like that coming out is not good for Kane or his team.

Like I said, he could still go out and drink and have a good time but do it in a way it doesn't reflect poorly on him or the organization that is paying him $6+ mill a year.

Exactly, people are saying no need to intervene it's not hurting his play on the ice yet. If you are the front office of a major sports team, you do not wait until it does. At that pointed you waited to long, and you are facing criticism.

I'll take anything that serves as distraction to Blackhawks and makes this franchise worse.
Kane being immature d*ck is nothing new, but I'll obviously take it. I only wish it got even worse in their locker room
and this moron kid pests the climate and sets bad example to the rest of this crappy team.

Kane isn't the only player in the NHL to go to bars and get wasted. It has always been part of the culture of being an NHL hockey player. Most players handle it much better than Kane does. He never had a vet take him under his wing and show him the proper way of being a professional. Some young guys like Toews don't need the guidance but Kane does. The Hawks just let him get away with it because he is one of their stars. Much like the Tigers do with Cabrera. He's an alcoholic but who cares? He is our best player so just ignore it.

A young endless rich NHL player going out having fun in the offseason? No problem

A young endless rich NHL player choking a girl while being drunk? Big problem but until there is some real proof to this I am not buying into it. I mean if so the Bodyguards would have kicked him out in a different "manner".

Gott love the life of a young NHL player hot chicks evereywhere, great beachhouses gorgeaus cars. Not a Kane fan mind you would take captain Serious 100 of 100 times over him.
